The 2014 vintage of Maria Teresa’s Dolcetto is a delight. This is flown in direct from Italy — very little of her wonderful Dolcetto ever makes it out of Italy. I had to bring some back to share with fellow Bartolo Mascarello fans.

Very pretty nose reminiscent of a fist full of violets, and a juicy palate with blackberries, cherries, a touch of wild fennel — delicious and a rare treat.

Beautiful label from a painting that Maria Teresa’s father, Bartolo Mascarello, painted when he was in his 70’s.
